WASHINGTON NEWS.

WASHINGTON, Nov, 1S.-The annual
report of Sect'y Knott, second assistant
postmaster general, shows that the
total cash for the year was $40, S06 sos.
In the star service there was an in
crease of els routes, and a decrease
in cost of $254, "a. In the mail messen-
ger service there was an increase OF
So BIZ in cost. In the railroad service
there was an increase in cost OF 1854,
500. The increase in the number of
pieces mail handled by the postal clerk
during the last fiscal year over the pre-
ceding year was 500, OO0, 600. The
continuation of the appropriation for
special mail facilities on fast lines to
the southwest is recommended. The
ted to meet the requirements of the
Office of the second assistant
postmaster general for the fiscal
year 1889 is S31 1886, O65. The report
closes with a strong recommendation
in favor of change in the method of
paying railroads for mail transporta-
ton. 1t is maintained that the rail-
way mail service has outgrown the old
method of adjusting the pay of rail-
roads and it is recommended that space
be substituted for weight as the bases
and criterion of the compensation of
railroads, and it is confidently believed
that such change viii be more econ
omical to the government and more
equitable in the transaction of business
between the department and the rail-
roads, and more satisfactory to both.
WHAT CHAhBERLAIN SAYS.
WASHINGTON, Nov. 18.-Chamber-
lain, the British fisheries commissioner,
gave an audience to a number of news
paper men this evening. He said that
it was possible that the commission
might make an entirely new treaty,
but admitted that the work might re-
! suit in an agreement of an interpreta-
tion of the existing treaty which would
be satisfactory to both sides. He did
not think the subject of commercial
union with Canada would come before
| the commission in any way. He did
not think any sane man on the other
side of the water ever thought of war
as a remote possibility in connection
with the fisheries dispute.

LITTLE Rock, Nov. 1s.-Forest fires
are burning at many points, north.
west, south and east of this city and
the smoke last night settled down SO
dense as to be almost intOlerable. A
Gazette special says: For four days
fires have been raging on the hills and
in the bottoms of the Red and Sulphur
rivers and Texarkana, sweeping every
thing before them, tapping up cane
brakes where thousands of cattle have
been feeding for months, visiting farms
and leaving in their track blackened
ruins of homes. fencing and outhouses.
All available help is employed in
fighting the progress of the flames.
Large numbers of cattle and hogs have
been caught in the flames and de-
stroyed. Unless rain comes speedily
the loss of life and destruction of prop
erty will be great. At Little Rock only
four and a half inches of rain has
fallen for nearly five months and little
more has fallen at any point ravaged by
fire. Everything is dry and the wells
and small streams everywhere are dry
ing up under the influence of the long
est drouth ever known.
